2. Select PTZ Control from the Port Mode drop-down list. The following table describes some major
parameters.
Parameter
Description
PTZ Protocol
Set the PTZ protocol that the channel supports.
Note:
You can set this parameter only when Port Mode is set to PTZ Control.
When PTZ Protocol is set to INTERNAL-PTZ, the camera can connect to the external PTZ
without using the serial port (serial port parameters are grayed out). In this case, you
only need to connect the zoom and focus interfaces of the camera to the lens, and then
you can operate the PTZ like an internal PTZ.
PTZ Mode
Built-in PTZ Priority: When this option is selected, the camera first tries to control the
PTZ (for example, to zoom or focus) by itself instead of through the external PTZ. For
operations that the camera cannot accomplish by itself, the camera uses the external
PTZ.
External PTZ Priority: The camera first tries to control the PTZ through the PTZ
connected through the serial port.
Note:
You can set this parameter only when Port Mode is set to PTZ Control.
When INTERNAL-PTZ is selected, this parameter is always set to Built-in PTZ Priority,
and it is unnecessary to connect the camera to an external PTZ through the serial port.
Control through the external PTZ is not effective even when the camera has been
connected to an external PTZ.
Set this parameter as required. Make sure PTZ control related interfaces are correctly
connected.
Address Code
Set the address code for the PTZ.
Note:
You can set this parameter only when Port Mode is set to PTZ Control and PTZ Protocol is
not set to INTERNAL-PTZ.
